What kind of work?

What’s wrong with being a junior developer?

So you are mad that the service doesn’t support what it says it doesn’t support and throw a fit online for internet points. I give up on understanding why these things go viral.

This has always been the case for me, not sure why, but when I have nothing to do at work I get very anxious. I assume it’s because the other areas of my team are very busy and con…

I’m 27 and my first job was OSGI at a Java shop. That was some convoluted shit. Class path errors, coupled to blueprint XML and fancy IDE stuff. I’ve worked in different languages …

Similar goals technically. What are you studying up on for networking? I’ve been doing a lot of home lab stuff

It’s pretty scary stuff. I just spent 2022 grinding without sleep and severe depression due to accidental abuse of this stuff. My doctor did not educate me well and I’ve never felt…

Young senior dev at big tech. Any good reads for the new year? I like all topics, but trying to commit to 2-3 technical books that can help me progress in my career.

I exclusively self host vault warden behind a VPN and firewall with a custom domain. Changes are automatically managed and deployed through GitHub CI/CD. I have wireguard VPN on al…

Is it dangerous to host sites like this? I love making tools like this but worry about the repercussions

Switched to self-hosted Bitwarden on my own domain behind a VPN. Everything on disk is encrypted.

Yes. vscode can be self hosted and accessible over http and run in a Docker container. You can ssh tunnel or port forward it

I love to code, but the pressure of work makes me dwindle both physically and mentally. After lots of conscious effort, I’m back in a good physical and mental state trying to not l…

I left Facebook 8 years ago, but have been in and out of sites like Reddit, HN, trash news and the like. I’ve gotten rid of my smartphone on and off a few times. I’m 27 and as I ge…

Based on what data?

Is it public? If you host a high traffic site from residential ISP connection, your account could get banned. Regardless, I would host an NGINX proxy in front of some docker contai…

Coding is everywhere. Lean into your business skills and get a business analytics job. I feel with a good portfolio and story with a lot of studying, that would be a good path.

Self host nextcloud on a VPS with an external storage like Hetzner storage box and run redundant backups with backblaze

Udemy Business is overpriced for sure, but nice alternative to Pluralsight

I believe the question is around layoffs being beneficial or detrimental. For example, let’s say you have a 6 person company and layoffs affect 50% of the staff. Now you’re down to…

In a time of New Years resolutions, I like to bring up a question that reflects on not 2023 goals, but the goals you set in 2021 for the 2022 year. For those who stuck with them co…

Damn that key even looks familiar

FWIW this book is great. It took me a couple months of immense dedication to finish everything from the first course.

Nice review of Thorstens book. I read your book when I graduated college around 2018 and was unfulfilled at work. It was a lot of fun and I distinctly remember sitting in a coffee …

Nice this is cool!
